We at Democratic Women of the Desert were pleased to see the recent Monday News­maker feature on Christy Porter, founder of Hidden Harvest. The club honored Porter last year with its Humanitarian award during our Women Honoring Women event. Hidden Harvest will donate 1 million pounds of "rescued" produce to FIND (Food In Need of Distribution) Food Bank this year alone.

Porter is a terrific role model. She's not a celebrity. She's not a famous athlete. She's a humanitarian who saw a problem and tackled it - to improve our community.
